Hands-on experience
THE MASTER PROGRAMME INCLUDES A 4½-WEEK FIELD TRIP TO INDIA
To get valuable hands on experience and put the theories into practice, the Master of International Health students are spending over a month at the end of their first semester in Vellore in southern India.
Here they get a chance to explore innovative methods for addressing a wide range of global health issues. They also follow health care workers from CMC Vellore and learn how primary health care is practised in the nearby rural districts.
Master of International Health
STUDY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Application procedure
We have continuous enrolment, so if you wish to apply for the academic
year 2012-2013 we recommend you apply as early as possible. Final deadline is 1 April 2012.
Flexibility
FLEXIBLE SPRING SEMESTER
Even though the Master of International Health is a one year full-time study programme it has some flexibility built into its structure.
The first four months - the core module - has to be taken in one go, but the following eight months - the advanced module and thesis module - can be spread out over several years, making it possible for you to alternate between studying and working, and thereby keeping in close connection with your professional job.
The only rule is that you have to finish the programme within three years.
